You know what, I have never ever been a fan of Robin. I think he mostly ruins the Batman concept. But I'd be able to accept a Batman & Robin franchise at this point if only to distance the new take from Burton and Nolan.

Right. It certainly would. It goes into a realm of Batman that is more comic book inspired I believe. And done with a similar tone to Nolan and/or Burton (as opposed to Schumacher) it could be really cool. Especially considering delving into each individual Robin would inevitably allow for on screen adaptations of The Flying Graysons, Death of the Family, and Under the Red Hood. Each of which is deserving of respectful portrayals imo.
